All my worries concerning how Christoph Waltz would follow up his stunning performance as Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds were laid to rest when I was informed that the actor had been cast in The Green Hornet.
Waltz is set to play the villain Chudnofsky in Michel Gondry’s superhero flick, opposite Seth Rogen as the titular hero. The role was originally slated to be played by Nicolas Cage before he avoided ruining the film by dropping out before signing.
With Waltz on board, I’m about a thousand times more excited to see the picture.
It’s due for release in December of next year.
